Answer:

Yes she should purchase this preferred stock.

Explanation:

Return on investment as a percentage = return/capital invested * 100

For Aeryn to decide whether she should purchase this preferred stock, its return on investment should be higher than or equal to 8%. The return on investment of this preferred stock is $40/$475 * 100 = 8.42%, which is higher than her required return therefore she should purchase the preferred stock.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

$32,000

Explanation:

Cost of goods sold refers to all direct expenses incurred in producing goods and excludes all selling and indirect costs.

Cost of goods sold = Sales value - Gross Profit

Gross profit = Sales value - Direct costs - overhead costs

Gross profit per unit = $120 - ($50 + $ 20 + $10)

Gross profit per unit = $40 per unit

Gross profit in value = $40 per unit × No of units = $40 × 400 units = $16,000

Budgeted sales value = Selling price per unit × Budgeted sales units

                                     = $120 × 400 chairs = $48000

Thus, budgeted cost of goods sold = Budgeted sales value - Gross Profit in value

= $48000 - $16000 = $32000

<u>Note</u>: While computing gross profit, selling and administrative expenses would be excluded since those are used while computing net income. Also, cost of goods sold excludes selling and administrative i.e . indirect costs.

If the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105.00 and FC = $1500.00: A. The firm Shuts Down and hires no workers and loses $1500.00
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: B. The firm hires 45 workers and earns a $1200.00 Economic Profit

Explanation:

According to the table, when the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105, the number of workers to hire would be 45 and the revenue would be $7,425.

If 45 workers are hired, they would cost:

= 45 * 105 per worker

= $4,725

Added to the fixed cost, the total cost would be:

= 4,725 + 1,500

= $6,225

The profit would be:

= Revenue - cost

= 7,425 - 6,225

= $1,200
